Score 90/100 · Drink 1992-2017, Robert Parker, Apr 1992
Last Tasted 3/92 This wine had a saturated, deep ruby color that made it look at least ten years younger. The nose was intense, but not that evolved. In the mouth, the wine tasted surprisingly young, dense, full-bodied, and capable of another 20-25 years of life. I have limited experience with this vintage, but I do not remember the 1966 being this spectacular. If this bottle, which was in gorgeous condition, was typical, this wine should merit attention from the wine auction crowd.
